AMETEK Land Appoints Director, Development and Product Management

SHEFFIELD, UK – AMETEK Land, the leading temperature measurement and combustion emissions specialist, has enhanced its senior management team with the appointment of Christopher Leonard to the role of Director, Development and Product Management.

Mr. Lenard has over 20 years of experience in mechanical and process engineering gained in the oil and gas, chemical, energy, and mining ¬¬¬¬¬¬¬sectors. He has held roles in industrial application engineering and product commercialization of instrumentation from concept to market-leading brands and has worked for a variety of global industry heavyweights, including Hydratight, Bridon International and most recently Oxford Flow.

Mr. Leonard will head up AMETEK Land’s global industry management and design engineering teams and build on its reputation for providing accurate and innovative temperature measurement and emissions monitoring solutions. Development efforts will focus on bringing new products to market that will help industries, such as aluminium, glass, process, power, and steel, meet the demands of an increasingly competitive world, with ever tighter emissions controls and reduced energy consumption targets.

“He joins us at a very exciting time for our business as we develop innovative new technologies and instruments to help plants improve productivity while conserving energy and reducing emissions, whether that be through more accurate temperature measurement or through improved combustion or emission monitoring techniques,” he adds.
